Hudson County, which is situated along the Hudson River, is the smallest county in New Jersey, but one of the most densely populated counties in the nation, and it has ample resources to help you through the wedding planning process.
Hudson County has a well-developed public transportation system, as it is served by New Jersey Transit, PATH, Hudson River Ferries, and the Newark Liberty International Airport, so you and your wedding guests will be able to easily transverse the area.
The county is divided into 12 municipalities, and its major cities and towns include the county seat, Jersey City, Hoboken, Bayonne, Union City, Kearny, West New York, and Secaucus.
Hudson County has many different shopping venues, from traditional shopping malls, to specialty boutiques and gift shops, so you will have no problem finding everything on your wedding checklist.
Make sure you check out Westfield Garden State Plaza, Newport Centre, the upscale boutiques on Washington Street, the annual bridal trunk show at Lord & Taylor Garden State Plaza, and the sidewalk sales on Central Avenue in Jersey City, just to name a few.
Hudson County has a great selection of wedding venues, from elegant restaurants for more intimate affairs, to luxury hotels that can accommodate all of your out-of-town guests.
Popular wedding venues include Liberty House Restaurant in Jersey City, Waterside Restaurant and Catering in North Bergen, which features incredible views of the New York City skyline and outside areas for receptions, Crowne Plaza Hotel-Meadowlands in Secaucus, and Liberty Science Center in Jersey City, which is also a popular tourist attraction.
